Coca Cola contains 16 teaspoons of sugar
Gatorade contains 9 teaspoons of sugar
Fruit juice contains 10 teaspoons of sugar
All of these beverages are taking you well over your recommended intake! 😲😲
Sugar has been shown to increase inflammatory markers in the body, thus causing more inflammation in the body.
In a time where we want to focus on our health more than ever, you may want to rethink that sugary beverage and opt for a glass of water instead. Consider adding some fresh lemon juice, mint, or cucumbers for flavor! 🍋
